Reflexology North Wales
Reflexology is the treatment of the whole body through the feet. It works on a similar principle to Acupressure.
Specific areas of the feet are stimulated in order to bring balance to the body. During a Reflexology session, some people are surprised when the therapists notices conditions such as neck problems or sinus problems etc. As therapists we are often able to feel crystal like deposits in certain areas of the feet which correspond to an organ or specific area. This tells us that there is an imbalance within this organ or area and then we may go about our work and clear it leaving you to feel the benefits.
Reflexology map
This is a typical map of the feet that a Reflexologist would use during training.
The shaded areas indicate different organs and systems in the body, for example, the blue shaded areas on the back of the toes represent the sinuses, whilst the green shaded area on the ball of the foot represent the lungs.
It's interesting to note that occasionally some clients feel a sensation in their body which corresponds to the area that is being worked on, even though they are not aware of what organ or area the Reflexologist is working on! Some may feel a pleasant tingling sensation along the zone that is being worked on.
Whatever you feel, you are sure to be very relaxed by the end of your session.
Is there anything I should know before I come for my treatment?
Reflexology is known to eliminate toxins therefore if you have a large amount of toxins in your system, a treatment may lead to tiredness or headache. This can be avoided by keeping the diet light and healthy a few days prior to treatment, plus the elimination of alcohol and cigarettes. Drinking plenty of water before and after treatment will benefit greatly.
Can the treatment be uncomfortable?
The treatment is very relaxing and often involves some clients falling asleep! Some tender areas may be detected during a treatment but will not cause great discomfort. This will allow the therapist to pinpoint areas of concern.
